The IETF floated a new analog protocol for internet traffic in an attempt to get some more security in the system.

 I don't often talk biotech here, but Razer (the gaming hardware maker) is creating a nanobot infused energy drink for gamers.  I am sure that will go well.

Finally some good news - plans to add a security parameter in response headers.  Should be a good move toward better browser level decision making.

And that's been your week in application security.
